A u momu ohorodci metelyk litaye,
Tak ty, lyubku, lystok pyshu, shcho maty ne znaye.

Oy dubochku zelenenkyi, oy dubku, oy dubku,
Nelehko my samiy buty bez tebe, miy lyubku.

Oy ty, dole moya, dole, shcho ya uchynyla,
Nashcho tebe, miy mylenkyi, samoho pustyla?!

Oy tuha my na serdenku, tuha ne zartochka,
Koby skoro pryishla, lyubku, vid tebe vistochka!

Napyshy meni, miy mylyi, napyshy kartochku,
Chy ty mayesh, chy ne mayesh pro mene hadochku.

– Oy pyshu ya, moya myla, az dvi, ne odnuyu,
Shcho ya mayu za toboyu tuhu velykuyu.
